Printed Sensors Market To Reach $10.46 Billion

The printed sensors market was valued at $6.71 billion in 2015 and is expected to reach $10.46 bil- lion by 2022, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate of 7.0 percent between 2016 and 2022, according to a new report from MarketsandMarkets. The growth of this market is propelled by the advan- tages offered by printed sensors over conventional silicon-based sensors. Unlike the conventional sensor technology, printed sensors are flexible, thin, lightweight, and organic, ac- cording to the report. The disadvantages of conventional sensors such as rigidity, bulkiness, and complex architecture among others are largely overcome by printed sensors.Thus, the demand for printed sensors is expected to grow significantly in the near future.
